I feel unfair giving this a 2 star rating as my little one (5 years) loves these stories, as did her big sister at around this age, and she is thrilled with this collection she got for her birthday. My 7 year old boy also enjoys listening in at bedtime and even reading these stories to his sister himself (though he is reluctant to admit this to anyone outside of close family). They really enjoy cheeky Jack Frost and his goblin followers especially. But this is my rating, not theirs, and as the main bedtime reader around here, I have to admit I do not particularly enjoy reading these rather repetitive stories aloud - one in between other family favourites, I can do, but three in a row is just mindnumbing and dread-inducing. Still, these books are not written with me in mind. For many children just starting out on chapter books they are obviously enticing and enjoyable.

This entry represents ALL the Rainbow Fairy books ever written as G collects them all and we have read through every one!!! They are the most repetitive, tedious books yet young girls LOVE them.

Everyone else is completely correct in that these stories are very repetitive and slightly frustrating to read. They are not written for us though. It seems like it is pitched absolutely perfectly for my 3 1/2 year old who hung on every word. So this is essentially her review. I just couldn't bring myself to give this 5 stars though.

I thought these were fun because there were fairies in it and the little kids could turn into fairies too

My daughter loves the Rainbow fairies books so we brought her this for Christmas and have marked the ones read with a sticker - over 50 now! ( and only one read by her...)
